2012, UFOs and Conspiracy Theories
Question: "What is your take on 2012, UFOs and conspiracy theories, especially according to A Course in Miracles?"
Nick's comment: All conspiracy theories, 2012, etc., they all fall within the "dream." And since EVERYTHING is my projection anyway, including the galaxies and UFO and everything in between and beyond that I can possibly imagine, I will find ALL the evidence that will support my projections no matter what. Or I should say, I will "project" all the evidence that I need to support my projection, whatever that projection may be.
What the Course is asking me is to let go of all my thoughts and ideas about everything, and hand them over to the Holy Spirit.
"Simply do this: Be still, and lay aside all thoughts of what you are and what God is; all concepts you have learned about the world; all images you hold about yourself. 2 Empty your mind of everything it thinks is either true or false, or good or bad, of every thought it judges worthy, and all the ideas of which it is ashamed. 3 Hold onto nothing. 4 Do not bring with you one thought the past has taught, nor one belief you ever learned before from anything. 5 Forget this world, forget this course, and come with wholly empty hands unto your God." W-pI.189.7:1-5
And as far as living in this world of illusion, I still can engage in conversations and act "normal" on the outside, while on the inside I see everything for what it is, just a projection; a dream.
